FOTD: Black Peacock

Hello Dolls! It feels like I havent posted a look or post in such a long time. I'm getting over the affects of laryngitis after a week of being sick. Finally I feel decent enough to do a look for Glamour Doll Eyes! I decided to show you how versatile GDE shadows can be by creating two different looks simply changing one thing! 

I created a black smokey peacock inspired look, then by using the black shadow and making it into an eyeliner using a mixing medium I changed it into a bright look focusing all the color on the lower lash line!!

I hope you guys enjoy both looks!

FOTD: Born of Illusion

Hello Dolls! Today I have a look for you featuring all three of the shadows in the new Glamour Doll Eyes "Born of Illusion" collection. I created a sultry smoky eye using all three colors and three MAC eyeshadows as well. I'm loving this collection so far. Teri Brown, the author of "Born of Illusion" was also kind enough to send me a copy of the book before it is released in June and I must say it's so good. The story is so intriguing and has me hooked.

This look is somewhat based on the book. I created this sultry smoky eye based on the book and the darkness and mystery around the entire story as well as the main character.

REVIEW AND SWATCHES: Glamour Doll Eyes Born of Illusion Collection (COMING SOON!!)

Hello Dolls! Today I have a very special review and batch of swatches! An unreleased, coming soon collection from Glamour Doll Eyes!!

Glamour Doll Eyes partnered up with Terri Brown to create a brand new collection for Teri's new book "Born of Illusion".

The new collection will be released to the public on May 15th. It consists of 3 pigment shadows. Since it is past of a  collaboration collection it is only available as a full set and once available the collection will cost $15. Which is cheaper than buying them separately. Normally full sized shadows go for $6 each making 3 shadows $18, so you save $3 in total. 

 Packaging:

The shadows come in a cute little see through baggy embellished with silver stars. The packaging for the shadows themselves is quite normal. They're packaged like normal GDE shadows. They have two stickers. One on the lid with the GDE logo, and one on the bottom with the shadows name, ingredients, and whether or not its lip safe and vegan!

 Shadows!

This collection consist of three full sized eyeshadow pigments. 

All named after something to do with the book. The three shadows are Illusion, Deception and Levitation. 

Illusion- pearlescent white with a light pink duochrome.

Deception- dark, almost black grey with multi colored shimmers

Levitation- dark royal blue

Deception is actually extremely similar to the permanent GDE shadow in Incognito. 

Swatches:

Overall:

When first contacted about this collection I really did not know what to expect. But the colors completely match what "Born of Illusion" is about. All shadows are shimmery and non matte, so they do swatch and apply incredibly well! They're amazingly pigmented and super easy to blend! Levitation is unlike any other shadow that I own and is my favorite of the three!

I would definitely check out this collection the moment it is released because the shadows are amazing for such a cheap price!

Check out the Glamour Doll Eyes website for this collection and for other great shadows!
